In the future society, i.e. the communist society that we want to build, we are not going to establish charity institution, as there shall be no needy or poor, and no alms-giving and alms-taking.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Anticipate charity by preventing poverty.
A society that has more justice is a society that needs less charity.
If you don't improve the lives of the poor, it's not charity.
Strangely, charity sometimes gets dismissed, as if it is ineffective, inappropriate or even somehow demeaning to the recipient. 'This isn't charity,' some donors take pains to claim, 'This is an investment.' Let us recognize charity for what it is at heart: a noble enterprise aimed at bettering the human condition.
True charity is the desire to be useful to others with no thought of recompense.
Charity must become a fundamental state of mind and heart that guides us in all we do.
Charity is a fine thing if it's meeting a gap where needs must be met and there are no other resources. But in the long term we need to support people into helping themselves.
It is justice, not charity, that is wanting in the world.
Most philanthropists would still rather donate to elite schools, concert halls or religious groups than help the poor or sick.
Charity is very difficult to do right. Thinking through what people need: You can't start a charity without that. It's like starting a business without the product.
